====================
0. Introduction
====================

This FAQ addresses the issue of advertising on the Corel
Paradox NewsGroups. Officially, the NewsGroups do not
carry advertising. However, as the number of people
producingadd-ons for Paradox increases once more, so does
the occurrence of advertising on the various groups.

With the agreement of Corel we are, therefore, requesting
that everyone adopts a slightly different way of
advertising products.

Within the NewsGroups themselves little or no objection
will be made to simple announcements that a new product or
version exists. These announcements should refer the reader
to the FAQs or a URL for further details.

Within the FAQs will reside this and, possibly, one other
FAQ dealing with Paradox products. Within this FAQ will be
descriptions of Paradox products as supplied by the
publishers. The idea is that users should be able to come
here even if no advertisement for a product is currently
visible on the NewsGroups, thus increasing coverage of every
product.

This FAQ is now also available on the Paradox Community
website.

2.1. AutoArchive 1.1. 2001.05.10 (Pdx 7-32, 8, 9, 10)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
Create, record archives, audit trails, capture edits and capture
deletes so you can implement undeletes and more. Archived records
include date time stamps by default. Name stamping is also an
option. It also provides an archive cleanup utility which helps
you delete archives or delete records from archives which are
older than a specific date. It is designed to be easy to use and
requires very little processing overhead. It also comes with a
bonus custom toolbar you can add to your applications. Deluxe
version includes the AutoArchive Demonstration application.

---------------
2.2. AutoArchive Demonstration Application 1.0. 2001.05.10
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
Including source code, this application demonstrates various
implementations of all the methods of AutoArchive while it does
not exhaust all the possible ways AutoArchive may be implemented
as that is mostly unlimited since you can call it from any
action. Available with AutoArchive in the new AutoArchive Deluxe
pack or separately. The separate version will not run without a
copy of AutoArchive but the source code may prove valuable.
Previous users of AutoArchive can buy the demonstration
application for use with their current version of AutoArchive.

---------------
2.3. AutoKey 2.0. 2001.04.28 (Pdx 7-32, 8, 9, 10, Linux)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
Implement automatic incrementing integer keys simply and at less
cost than writing the code yourself. Use AutoKey with tcursors or
directly on your forms' User Interface Objects (UIO). Take
advantage of the automatic linking capabilities of Paradox for
linked child tables. Create key values without posting them
immediately which lets you use AutoKey with tables with required
fields, concatenate unique key integers with other values such as
leading characters of a name or padding characters for custom
keys or fixed size keys and more. Deluxe version includes the
AutoKey Demo app.

---------------
2.4. AutoKey Demonstration Application 1.0. 2001.04.28
                             (Pdx 7-32, 8, 9, 10, Linux)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
Including source code, this application demonstrates various
implementations of all the methods of AutoKey while it does not
exhaust all the possible ways AutoKey may be implemented as that
is mostly unlimited. Available with AutoKey in the new AutoKey
Deluxe pack or separately. The separate version will not run
without a copy of AutoKey but the source code may prove valuable.

---------------
2.5. AutoReplicator 1.1. 2001.05.16 (Pdx 7-32, 8, 9, 10)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
A quick and easy solution for distributing modifications to your
applications to users' systems. You can easily manage remotely
running copies of your applications by updates from a master code
source. AutoReplicator manages the copying of components from the
master to the local copy. As a developer you can implement it by
adding as little as 3 lines of code and a variable to your
application! The time saved on application management and updates
should pay for the product very quickly.

---------------
2.6. BubbleHelp 3.0. 2001.05.01 (Pdx 7-32, 8, 9, 10, Linux)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm
Add help that your users will see and use! Cut your training and
support costs! Create help text popups of all sorts to your
Paradox forms. More flexible and functional than Paradox 9 or 10
tooltips and provides that capability to 7-32 & 8. Messages can
wrap to multiple lines and scroll. Put in any amount of text in a
message. Works in any language! Attach messages to practically
any object on your forms. Add short prompts or long instructional
messages to users for buttons or fields on your forms. Display
different messages on the same object depending on various
conditions. Messages are kept in a table to simplify management.

---------------
2.7. Crooit Pop-Up Holiday Calendar 1.55. 2001.05.01

developer or for those who choose to use HTML for tasks such as
report generation and/or distribution.

---------------
2.9. Crooit Name Key Alpha Generator 1.20. 2000.10.16
---------------
URL:  http://www.crooit.com/NameKey.htm
The Name Key Alpha Generator (NKAG) was designed to accept names
of either individuals or non-individuals and build a key that can
be used as a secondary table index for ordered alphabetical
presentations. Traditional designs often include separate fields
for the first, middle, and last names and exclude the use of
common prefix and suffix words like Mr., Mrs., Jr. and
Incorporated. With NKAG, free form entry of names is supported
with commonly occurring prefix, suffix, connector, and title
words automatically taken into consideration.

---------------
2.10. Crooit Scheduler 1.20. 2000.11.16
---------------
URL:  http://www.crooit.com/Scheduler.htm
The Scheduler for Paradox is designed to support asynchronous
processing of network application events. Your applications can
post messages to the event database and the system notifies event
handlers that you develop for further processing. Support for
receiving and originating email is also included. The Scheduler
is designed for unattended operation and a dedicated workstation
is recommended.

---------------
2.11. Crooit Tree Builder 1.20. 2000.10.18
---------------
URL:  http://www.crooit.com/TreeView.htm
The Pop-Up Tree Builder for Corel Paradox is designed to support
custom look-up in your applications. It supports tree views when

ProDoc is a powerful documentation expert for Paradox objects. It
can explore forms (including FDLs), reports, libraries, tables
and databases. ProDoc extracts all information which can be
extracted and provides a variety of true tree-looking and tabular
reports. ProDoc can synchronize itself with objects which are
explored and synchronize these objects with itself. Almost all
functionality is accessible via right-click context sensitive
pop-up menus, so try to right-click everywhere. For forms and
libraries, ProDox shows all mutual method calls and calls to
externals (i.e. other forms, reports, libraries, and scripts).

---------------
2.13. ProView 2.5.6. 2002.06.10. (Pdx 7/32, 8, 9, 10)
---------------
URL:  http://sheep.east.ru:8100/~menkin
URL: http://members.fortunecity.com/menkin

Paradox passwords. This improves security eliminating the need to
restructure tables to modify system security. Security Guard can
be used with interactive Paradox sessions, built in to your
applications or used with your Paradox Internet applications.
Works with versions 5 to 10 (Management Console only runs in 32
bit versions and Internet components only in 8 to 10.) Includes
LAN management console, password interface and the libraries,
forms and HTML for the Internet and the demo app.

---------------
2.15. Security Guard for the Internet. 2001.02.01 (Pdx 8, 9, 10)
---------------
URL: http://www.RDAWorldWide.com/index.htm

---------------
URL: email to david.portwood@gte.net
Define and execute a cancellable select query (simulated) from
a single, simple library method call. Specify Source table,
Target table, and powerful conditional selection criteria. The
Target table is created/overwritten to have the same structure
as the Source table. A Progress Bar form displays the % complete
status and provides a Cancel button with which the user can stop
the query at any time. Contact David Portwood (above)
for further details, examples of use, and payment information.

---------------
2.17. Extended Data Structures (Pdx 7, 8, 9, 10)
---------------
URL: email to david.portwood@gte.net
Define nested data structures and reference components using
familiar dot notation. Create arrays of arrays (to any number
of dimensions), arrays of records, records whose fields can
be variables, arrays, or records, and more. Structures can be
nested to any (practical) level. Simplify your code by more
effectively organizing your data. Not table-driven, all data
is stored in a shareable library (open source) with convenient
methods for manipulating your structures. Contact David Portwood
(above) for further info, examples, and payment information.

2.18. Developer's ToolBox 1.5 (Pdx 7, 8, 9, 10)
---------------
Released by Jedstar Technologies on 2002.06.25.
URL:  http://www.thedbaddons.com/
The Developer's ToolBox adds functionality that is not native
to Paradox. Compression, encryption, image manipulation, HTML
and regular e-mail, FTP, HTTP file get/put and a computer clock
synchronization utility.  The included tools put the developer
in control of each of these thru simple ObjectPal calls; these
tools essentially become integrated into Paradox. There are 6
encryption algorithms supported, providing up to 128bit
encryption.  Compress, encrypt and zip files, then e-mail or
FTP them. Encrypt data within your Paradox tables and never
worry about sensitive information.

---------------

---------------
Released by Jedstar Technologies on 7/3/2002
URL: http://www.thedbaddons.com/jsip
JSI Standard enables sharing of data and files between any 2
or more computers running a copy of Paradox® 7 or later (32bit).
All transmissions are encrypted (Rijndael 128bit) even in JSI
Standard edition, except those designed to work with 'public'
sites.  Zip and Encryption (6 algorithms) are included for
general use in your apps.
JSI SSL adds industry standard Secure Sockets Layer to ensure
communication between cleint and server are secure.
JSI SSL/Secure adds the ability to change the Encryption Key
used internally to encrypt all requests and responses between
2 JSI-enabled systems. The Encryption Key can be changed at any
time to ensure complete security of your data.
All 3 versions communicate with regular sites. SSL and Secure
versions add the ability to communicate using SSL.
In an integrated environment, only Paradox and JSI are required.

---------------
2.20. Selecting Rows By Highlighting (all 32-bit Pdx)
---------------
URL: email to david.portwood@gte.net
Select rows from a tableframe or mro by highlighting the rows.
Records traversed using keyboard or mouse with Shift key down
are highlighted and selected. Records traversed with Control
key down are unhighlighted/unselected. Simple methods are
provided to loop a tcursor thru the selected records:
lmGetFirstSelectedRecord(), lmGetNextSelectedRecord().
